[issue21364] Documentation Recommends Broken Pattern
Armin Ronacher added the comment: I would like to know of some situations where you want to write some code that accesses standard streams as binary *and* don't control the application setup (i.e. library code rather than application code). It seems to me that a library should take the binary streams as parameters rather than force the use of stdin/stdout. The same situations people wrapped streams before on python 2: * code.py users. Werkzeug's traceback system implements a remote python shell through it. * any system that wants to unittest shell scripts on a high level. * any system that wants to execute arbitrary python code and then capture whatever output it did. This is for instance what I see Sphinx users frequently do (or doctests) In fact, the reasons people wrap sys.stdout/sys.stderr on 2.x are the same reasons why people would do it on 3.x: they have arbitrary code they did not write and they want to capture what it does. Since you do not know if that is binary or text you need a stream object that behaves the same way as the default one. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21364 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21288] hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac Hash Constructor
New submission from Armin Ronacher: Is there a specific reason why hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac now has a completely inconsistent API with the rest of the stdlib? So far the concept in both hashlib and hmac has been to accept hash constructors as parameters. As such you would expect the API to look like this: hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac(hashlib.sha256, b'password', b'salt', 10) Instead the API now is string based. This is annoying because a lot of code already in the past exposed a pbkdf2 implementation that allows passing in a hashlib constructor by passing it to HMAC. If such code now wants to use the stdlib pbkdf2_hmac implementation it has to special case known implementations. If a non known implementation is found it needs to dispatch to a separate implementation of PBKDF2. In addition to that there is no nice way to detect if a algorithm is not supported as the exception raised for an invalid algorithm is the same as an invalid parameter for the iteration count (ValueError). I would propose to change the API to allow hash constructors to be passed in in addition to strings. -- messages: 216728 nosy: aronacher priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac Hash Constructor versions: Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21288 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

A bit ugly and limited solution (no user-defined hash functions) for a better looking API. What I'm doing at the code for my employer is something similar. There is a PBKDF2 implementation on top of the hmac module. If a hashlib constructor is detected that OpenSSL implements it dispatches that to the PBKDF2 path in OpenSSL via ctypes. Ultimately it's the same situation but it does not expose the implementation detail. -- versions: +Python 3.4 -Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21288 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21235] importlib's spec module create algorithm is not exposed
New submission from Armin Ronacher: 3.4 deprecates load_module on the loaders and now proposes to use create_module (optionally) and exec_module. Unfortunately for external callers these interfaces are not useful because you need to reimplement _SpecMethods.create and a whole bunch of other stuff for it. Right now a caller can get hold of _SpecMethods by importing from _frozen_importlib but that seems very unsupported and is obviously entirely not exposed. Is there a reason those methods are not on the ModuleSpec directly but on a private wrapper? Example usage: from types import ModuleType from importlib.machinery import ModuleSpec, SourceFileLoader from _frozen_importlib import _SpecMethods loader = SourceFileLoader('plugin_base', 'my_file.py') spec = ModuleSpec(name=loader.name, loader=loader) mod = _SpecMethods(spec).create() In the absence of _SpecMethods a caller needs to do this: from importlib.machinery import ModuleSpec, SourceFileLoader loader = SourceFileLoader('plugin_base', 'my_file.py') spec = ModuleSpec(name=loader.name, loader=loader) if not hasattr(loader, 'create_module'): module = types.ModuleType(loader.name) else: module = loader.create_module(spec) module.__loader__ = loader module.__spec__ = spec try: module.__package__ = spec.parent except AttributeError: pass loader.exec_module(module) (And that is not the whole logic yet) -- keywords: 3.4regression messages: 216295 nosy: aronacher priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: importlib's spec module create algorithm is not exposed versions: Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21235 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: 1. Users can use _srcFile = None to avoid calling findCaller() altogether, so I can't do away with the _srcFile altogether as it may cause some issues with existing code. That is very undocumented behaviour and relying on that sounds like a terrible idea. 2. If using e.g. a LoggerAdapter derived class, there needs to be some way in which you can skip (in addition to the logging package itself) other user-defined modules until you get to the appropriate stack frame. First of all that should not be a global setting, secondly this is currently not possible in logging either. A better solution would be to do what warnings does and making it possible provide a stacklevel to the caller finder. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9948 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue9945] Improper locking in logging
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: I found a a useless lock acquiring in the 27 maintenance branch in logging and a missing one as well: Logger.removeHandler() locks around a handler lock, however the code executed in this lock is not depending on anything of that lock. However there is a race condition when two pieces of code try to remove the same handler at the same time because between the if and the remove() no locking takes place. I would recommend this instead (and also add locking to the addHandler): def addHandler(self, hdlr): Add the specified handler to this logger. _acquireLock() try: if hdlr not in self.handlers: self.handlers.append(hdlr) finally: _releaseLock() def removeHandler(self, hdlr): Remove the specified handler from this logger. _acquireLock() try: if hdlr in self.handlers: self.handlers.remove(hdlr) finally: _releaseLock() I suppose in 3.x there might be something similar. -- assignee: vinay.sajip components: Library (Lib) messages: 117364 nosy: aronacher, vinay.sajip priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Improper locking in logging type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9945 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue9947] Weird locking in logging config system
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: Another case of improper locking in logging. The stopListening() method of the logging config acquires the logging lock, but it doesn't do it early enough. In order for this function to be thread safe it would have to lock before the if. Currently that lock used is useless because it locks assigning to a single attribute assignment and a global assignment that is never checked to existence besides the stopListening() function. The attached patch proposes moving the lock before the if to make it threadsafe, but in all fairness sake that method is probably never executed from more than one thread. -- assignee: vinay.sajip files: logging-config-threadsafety.patch keywords: patch messages: 117370 nosy: aronacher, vinay.sajip priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Weird locking in logging config system versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19007/logging-config-threadsafety.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9947 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue9867] Interrupted system calls are not retried on OS X
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: Currently Python does not check fread and other IO calls for EINTR. This usually is not an issue, but on OS X a continued program will be sent an SIGCONT signal which causes fread to be interrupted. Testcase: mitsuh...@nausicaa:~$ python2.7 Python 2.7 (r27:82508, Jul 3 2010, 21:12:11) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)] on darwin Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information. from signal import SIGCONT, signal def show_signal(*args): ... print 'Got SIGCONT' ... signal(SIGCONT, show_signal) 0 import sys sys.stdin.read() ^Z [1]+ Stopped python2.7 mitsuh...@nausicaa:~$ fg python2.7 Got SIGCONT Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in module IOError: [Errno 4] Interrupted system call Expected behavior: on fg it should continue to read. The solution would be to loop all calls to fread and friends until errno is no longer EINTR. Now the question is how to best do that. I can't think of a portable way to define a macro that continues to run an expression until errno is EINTR, maybe someone else has an idea. Otherwise it would be possible to just put the loops by hand around each fread/fgetc etc. call, but that would make the code quite a bit more ugly. Technically I suppose the problem applies to all platforms, on OS X it's just easier to trigger. -- messages: 116504 nosy: aronacher priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Interrupted system calls are not retried on OS X type: behavior versions: Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9867 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue9775] Multiprocessing, logging and atexit play not well together
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: It's hard to say what exactly is to blame here, but I will try to outline the problem as good as I can and try to track it down: A library of mine is using a Thread that is getting entries from a multiprocessing.Queue periodically. What I find when the python interpreter is shutting down is this on stderr: Error in sys.exitfunc: Traceback (most recent call last): File python2.6/atexit.py, line 24, in _run_exitfuncs func(*targs, **kargs) File python2.6/multiprocessing/util.py, line 270, in _exit_function info('process shutting down') TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable Tracking down the issue shows that something has a __del__ [i have not found the object, i was under the impression the ProcessAwareLogger monkeypatch was, but apprently it's not the culprit] and clears out the module. When the exit handler is running info is already set to None. It can be easily checked if that is the issue when a weird monkepatch is added: def fix_logging_in_multiprocesing(): from multiprocessing import util, process import logging util._check_logger_class() old_class = logging.getLoggerClass() def __del__(self): util.info = util.debug = lambda *a, **kw: None process._cleanup = lambda *a, **kw: None old_class.__del__ = __del__ I originally thought that the destructor of the ProcessAwareLogger class was the issue, but apparently not so because it does not have one. Interestingly if one looks into the util.py module the following comment can be found: def _check_logger_class(): ''' Make sure process name is recorded when loggers are used ''' # XXX This function is unnecessary once logging is patched import logging if hasattr(logging, 'multiprocessing'): return ... This is interesting because the logging monkeypatch is unused if logging is multiprocessing aware (which it should be in 2.6 at least). However apparently at one point the toplevel multiprocessing import was removed which makes this test fall all the time. Looking at the current 26 branch it appears that the monkeypatch was removed by jesse noller in [68737] over a year ago. With the current development version (and I suppose a later release than 2.6.1 which I am currently testing) the error disappears as well. However the core issue would come back as soon as the atexit call moves past a destructor again I suppose. Because of that I would recommend aliasing info to _info and debug to _debug and then calling the underscored methods in the atexit handler. Any reasons for not doing that? Otherwise I would like to propose committing that patch. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 115578 nosy: aronacher priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Multiprocessing, logging and atexit play not well together versions: Python 2.6 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9775 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

It's documentation-deprecated in one version, one later a real deprecation warning appears that sticks around for a couple of versions.

Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: While this is surprising, this is documented behavior: If the destination is on the current filesystem, then simply use rename. Otherwise, copy src (with copy2()) to the dst and then remove src. And copy2() uses copystat() and does not copy contents, owner, and group. -- nosy: +aronacher ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue1355826 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue5405] There is no way of determining which ABCs a class is registered against
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: I don't think this can be solved. Not only do registered classes not show up (which could be fixed by providing something like inspect.getfakemro) but ABCs can also perform duck-type checks. For example a class with an __iter__ method is an instance of collections.Iterable or how it's called thanks to the __subclasscheck__ magic method. -- nosy: +aronacher ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5405 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue5405] There is no way of determining which ABCs a class is registered against
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: I suppose it would be a good idea to fix part of that problem in Sphinx (and probably also in pydoc) by adding something like :implements: MutableMapping in the docstring. So that this is explicitly added to the docstring and conforming tools can use this documentation hints. Similar things are currently implemented in Sphinx for :param: :return: etc. ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5405 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue5397] PEP 372: OrderedDict
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: Maybe premature optimization but maybe it would make sense to implement __eq__ like this: def __eq__(self, other): if isinstance(other, OrderedDict): if not dict.__eq__(self, other): return False return all(p == q for p, q in _zip_longest(self.items(), other.items())) return dict.__eq__(self, other) For the most likely case (that dicts are different) this should give a speedup. ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5397 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue5397] PEP 372: OrderedDict
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: @Georg * eval()ing the repr() will not construct the dict in the same order The alternative would be a list of dicts inside the constructor call, but that feels ugly. defaultdict from the same module is not evaluable at all, so I guess it wouldn't be that much of a problem. ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5397 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue5401] mimetypes.MAGIC_FUNCTION implementation clusterfuck
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: Sorry for the harsh words, but when I found that code I nearly freaked out. For all those years I was using from mimetypes import guess_type until today I found out that this has horrendous performance problems due to the fact that the mimetype database is re-parsed on each call. The reason for this is that mimetypes.guess_type is implemented like this: def guess_type(...): global guess_type init() guess_type = new_guess_type return guess_type(...) Obviously if the function was imported from the module and not looked up via standard attribute lookup before each call (by calling it like mimetypes.guess_type(...)) init() would be called over and over again. What's the performance impact? In a small WSGI middleware that serves static files the *total* performance impact (including HTTP header parsing, file serving etc.) was 1000%. Just for guess_type() versus mimetypes.guess_type() which was called just once per request. I attached a workaround for that problem that tries to avoid init() calls after the thing was initialized. If this is intended behaviour it should be documented but I doubt that this is a good idea as people don't read documentation it stuff seems to work. And google tells me I'm not the first one who invoked guess_type that way: http://google.com/codesearch?q=from+mimetypes+import+guess_type; -- components: Library (Lib) files: mimetypes-speedup.diff keywords: easy, needs review, patch, patch messages: 82992 nosy: aronacher priority: critical severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: mimetypes.MAGIC_FUNCTION implementation clusterfuck versions: Python 2.4, Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.0, Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13225/mimetypes-speedup.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5401 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5322] Python 2.6 object.__new__ argument calling autodetection faulty
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: In 2.6 a deprecation warning was added if `object.__new__` was called with arguments. Per se this is fine, but the detection seems to be faulty. The following code shows the problem: class A(object): ... def __new__(self): ... raise TypeError('i do not exist') ... class B(A): ... __new__ = object.__new__ ... def __init__(self, x): ... self.x = x ... B(1) __main__:1: DeprecationWarning: object.__new__() takes no parameters __main__.B object at 0x88dd0 In the `B` case `__new__` is not overridden (in the sense that it differs from object.__new__) but `__init__` is. Which is the default behaviour. Nonetheless a warning is raised. I used the pattern with the __new__ switch to achieve a cStringIO.StringIO behavior that supports typechecks: IterIO() returns either a IterI or IterO object, both instances of IterIO so that typechecks can be performed.

[issue5322] Python 2.6 object.__new__ argument calling autodetection faulty
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: The problem seems to be caused by tp_new being slot_tp_new which then invokes whatever __new__ in the class dict is. I'm not so sure what would be the solution to this.

[issue5284] platform.linux_distribution() improperly documented
New submission from Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com: platform.linux_distribution() was added in 2.6 as an alias for platform.dist(). However the documentation lists platform.dist() as an alias for platform.linux_distribution() and there is no information that the latter appered in 2.6 whereas the former exists since 2.4 I think.

[issue4907] ast.literal_eval does not properly handled complex numbers
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: literal_eval has eval() semantics and not complex() constructor semantics. It accepts what eval() accepts just without arithmetic and unsafe features. For exmaple (2 + 4j) is perfectly fine even though the complex call only supports 2+4j (no parentheses and whitespace). I commit the fix with the ValueError except Georg suggested. ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue4907 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue4907] ast.literal_eval does not properly handled complex numbers
Armin Ronacher armin.ronac...@active-4.com added the comment: Indeed, it accepts parentheses in 2.6 now, but not in 2.5 or earlier. Why not the other way round? Somewhere there has to be a limit. And if you write down complex numbers you usually have the imaginary part after the real part. But let's try no to make this a bikeshed discussion. If you say that literal_eval can safely evaluate the repr() of builtins (with the notable exception of reprs that eval can't evaluate either [like nan, inf etc.]) and probably a bit more it should be fine :) ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue4907 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
